Anybody know how to quit without AA/NA/Other meetings?
I overdosed in my early 20’s, and a friend died that night. After that, I bought into AA, and was completely sober for 5 years, and then smoked pot and drank beers for another 5 years. A couple years ago, some really bad stuff happened, and I relapsed for about 4 months, and nearly killed myself. I’ve been off the hard stuff again now for over two years, but I’d like to get completely sober.
Occasionally I’ll force myself to stop for a few days to a few weeks, but I always go back to using something. I just prefer the way my mind operates when I’m completely sober.
One time a couple years ago, I smoked DMT, and caught a glimpse of the feeling I need in my heart to be sober; I just haven’t been able to find anything to give me that feeling long enough to quit for good again.
Last time I quit out of fear and remorse, but this time I want to quit for me. It’s just that I can’t handle AA/NA etc. anymore. I also won’t meet with counselors, etc. I have a bunch of bad memories of that shit from childhood.
